when i look at my kids.. i feel like time is really running that fast.. it just seems so yesterday when they were still babies...
and now they are growing up. sniff sniff..
and alas lol i am getting old. lol.
but then again, i also get happy seeing them growing to be smart and witty.
last night, my husband was fixing the laptop, and the mouse is broken..
my youngest, 2 years old was a bit insistent on using the laptop and i said baby there is no mouse!
He then got up..and guess where he went.. to the mousetrap and he said, mama we have a mouse! lol.

this is so true. you put into words what many of us here are thinking about their kids. they have been growing up fast. and along the way, they have given us remarkable joys and inspiration to be there for them. your story about the mouse brought sunshine and smile to my day. thank you for that.

Congratulations to all parents for loving and watching their children. I am a mother with a health problem, in 2007 i prayed and still praying now for God to let me live for another 10 years because I want to take care of my kid, now I am counting the remaining 5 years - and will ask for a 10 years extension.

Wow, having kids are really so enjoyable. They are a bundle of joy to their parents. I'm a little envious right now. We are just starting, my wife and I are planning to have one soon. Good job on the proper childrearing of your kids. Good luck and wish me luck too please. Thanks1 person likes this

Really kids now are very smart my 1 yr old grandson knew different shapes and can count up to 10. Days are really fast can't imagine I already have a grandson my youngest is already graduating in highschool. That's the advantage of having kids at the young age you can't notice the days are passing by.

Awww! That's just sweet. I think you should be proud that your kids are getting wittier and cuter by the minute. Before you know it, they'd be older and would not want you to be in their lives publicly! Oh, how times flies!
Enjoy it while they're young and under your control!

I know how you feel. That's what I'm feeling right now. My son grows so fast before my eyes. At such a young age, he can do so much and that makes me feel like I being left behind. Children grow so fast nowadays. I wish time can slow a bit so I can cope up. Lol.

Smart kid
I feel the same now that my kids are young teens.
Now I know the advantage of having kids at early age.
Had my first born when I was 24 (hmnn...getting old but feeling young )
Also I can relate with them easily and enjoy being their buddy
